Sturm? Huh. Wasn't he just, just re-activated from the IR?

Jesus, you can put a guy on the IR for sucking? Why didn't we do that with Elliott?
You can't just put a guy on IR, they need to actually have an injury.SpezDispenser wrote:shabbs wrote:Bulin has been placed on the IR.SpezDispenser wrote:shabbs wrote:Oilers recall Gerber!

As you might expect, the disparities in income on these teams now creates some unusual situations. In minor league hockey, there's a tradition known as "The Board," where players place small sums of money for the scorer of the game's game-winning goal to collect. Most nights, the board can be $100 or so. No longer. Redden has placed iPads on the board and Commodore has put up as much as $1,000.
When Commodore got to Springfield, he thought the team could use a particular type of weightlifting machine so he bought $2,000 worth of equipment on his own dime. He says he's grown so accustomed to paying for things that it's getting a bit "awkward" with his teammates. "The other guys want to start contributing," he said.
The NHL's waiver system makes it unlikely any of these players will be back in the big league anytime soon. If a player is picked up on waivers, both his new team and his old team must add half the player's salary to their salary cap total. For players like Redden, who signed a six-year guaranteed contract in 2008, that's a huge disincentive that has turned the AHL into hockey's version of a white-collar prison.
